# Connecting Codex CLI

This guide connects **Codex CLI** (OpenAI's terminal coding assistant) to your Fuze Store account.

  Codex CLI requires a paid ChatGPT plan (**Plus, Pro, Business, Edu, or Enterprise**) or an OpenAI API key with billing enabled — there is no free path. This is separate from the paid Fuze Store AI Connections add-on. Plans are set by OpenAI and can change.

## Before You Start

- **Codex CLI** is installed and you are signed in with a paid ChatGPT plan or an API key.
- You have **Owner** or **Admin** access to the store you want to connect.
- The **AI Connections** add-on is active on that store.

## Get Your MCP URL

In the Fuze Store app, open **Configurations → MCP → Connect an assistant** and copy the **MCP Server URL**:

```text
https://api.fuze-store.com/mcp/store/<your-store-id>
```

## Connect

**1. Edit `~/.codex/config.toml`.** Append the block below to the end of the file (substitute your MCP Server URL):

```toml
[mcp_servers.fuze-store]
transport = "http"
url = "https://api.fuze-store.com/mcp/store/<your-store-id>"
```

**2. Complete the OAuth login.** Run the login command — it opens a browser for the consent flow:

```bash
codex mcp login fuze-store
```

**3. Approve in the browser.** Sign into Fuze Store if prompted, review the permissions, and **Approve**.

## Ask Your First Question

- "What were my sales yesterday?"
- "List my best-selling products this month."
- "How many orders are open right now?"

## If Something Goes Wrong

If login fails, confirm you are signed into a paid ChatGPT plan or have an API key with billing on. For Fuze-side issues, see the troubleshooting section of [Setting Up AI Access](/docs/store/ai-connections/setting-up-oauth).
